7年生と8年生の英語文学と言語芸術（ELA）：自分のペースで学習

This 15-week course will cover 7th & 8th Grade English Languages Arts Common Core Standards in a multi-age setting. 

Homeschooled students can benefit from a full and complete curriculum whereas students who are already taking Middle School ELA can enroll for additional support, practice, or enrichment. 

Literacy development is a lifelong journey that is composed of many complex concepts and understandings that are not limited to the written Western page. In 2024, reading and writing has taken on new lengths. Importantly, we are now exposed to a much wider variety of literature in the form of film, documentary, theatre, podcast, blogs, songs, webpages, magazine articles, and so much more. Literacy includes the capacity to learn to communicate, read, write, think, explore, and solve problems. Literacy skills are used in paper, digital, and live interactions where people: 

    * analyze critically and solve problems 

    * understand and communicate meaning 

    * create a variety of creative and analytic content

    * read, view, and listen for fun

    * make connections both personally and intertextually 
    * engage in personal summaries and analyses

    * and more!
   
With examples, support, and practice, students will have the opportunity to deepen their critical skills as they work with fun, poignant, age-appropriate, and engaging content… all the while participating in focused conversations and completing core standards.


Weekly schedule:

Video lesson with exposure and instruction of the assigned literature and writing assignments. They will leave with a literary assignment (written, video, audio, or graphic) at the end of each lesson to be submitted if they would like feedback on them.

I provide written feedback on all submitted assignments and can grade assignments upon request.

Learners should be prepared to engage with the material to the best of their personal abilities. I will make sure that all learners feel safe, welcome, and leave with a positive view of literacy!
